Could you not get promoted to Super-Titan league if there were already 100 players in there unless some player was recently demoted? What if multiple players were eligible for promotion? Would the first one to finish a match be promoted?

In this new league, lets say... End League for the sake of conversation, you could lose your spot, say 50 of 50 to someone who's skill just passed yours, and thus moved up into the #50 spot. As far as multiple eligibility, the player with the highest behind the scenes skill gets the spot, it could change rapidly or could have a timer, say every 24 hours the rankings get updated.

This kind of behavior is very counter-productive and is one reason why the league system is the way it is right now.

Only the absolute best would end up in the End League, and it's unlikely the absolute best would stop playing the game. If they did, they'd lose rank due to other players behind the scenes score increasing. There could also be a time penalty for players in this league, so that if they don't play, they drop out. This could be done many ways. The End League would then be the Absolute Best Active players, theoretically. Which is just as good.

Based on your further explanation, I think it's obvious that this leagues can only be built by exceptions to the current rules and functions of league play.
Outwitters is not an eSport, it's not supposed to be one and therefore I'm totally fine with the way leagues are right now.
